If you watch X backwards, it's about Y

The concept of this joke certainly isn't new, but I've recently fallen in love with it and came up with a few of my own. I was strongly urged (read: threatened against my will) to post them somewhere on the interblags so that others may rofl at them. So I have a few that I've heard before and a few that I've made up:

-If you watch Jurassic Park backwards, it's about some dinosaurs who throw up a bunch of people and get into cages so they can make the coolest theme park of all time.

-If you watch The Replacements backwards, it's about a really talented, cohesive football team that starts degrading into a rag-tag group of individuals who eventually quit the sport altogether.

-If you watch Aladdin backwards, it's about a prince who loses his girlfriend and favorite lamp, eventually becoming a street rat, stealing just to survive.

-If you watch The Matrix backwards, it's about a really badass guy who starts getting worse at kung fu, so he plugs himself back into the system to revert to a boring, ordinary life.

-If you watch Rambo backwards, it's about a lone stranger who goes around a forest healing dying people with his magical bullet vacuum.

-If you watch the Ten Commandments backwards, it's about Moses finding a bunch of free Jewish people in the desert, leading them to Egypt, trapping them behind a wall of water, and then making them slaves.

-If you watch Momento backwards, it makes sense.

-If you watch Pulp Fiction backwards, it's basically the same.

-If you watch the Mighty Ducks backwards, it's about a really good pee-wee Hockey team who gradually gets worse, losing to mediocre and eventually even beginner level teams, until eventually their coach becomes so depressed that he gets a DUI for drunk driving.

-If you watch Gladiator backwards, it's about an amazing zombie gladiator winning all of his battles until eventually he becomes the lead general of the entire Roman army.

-If you watch Harry Potter backwards, it's about a a young wizard being placed with a non-magical family by the witness protection program because of a series of particularly traumatizing events.

-If you watch The Curious Case of Benjamin Button backwards, it's about the life of an ordinary guy.
